Abstract:

This is the first book devoted entirely to the history of compound words in 
Spanish. Based on data obtained from Spanish dictionaries and databases of 
the past thousand years, it documents the evolution of the major compounding 
patterns of the language. It analyzes the structural, semantic, and orthographic 
features of each compound type, and also provides a description of its Latin 
antecedents, early attestations, and relative frequency and productivity over the 
centuries. The combination of qualitative and quantitative data shows that 
although most compound types have survived, they have undergone changes in 
word order and relative frequency. Moreover, the book shows that the evolution 
of compounding in Spanish may be accounted for by processes of language 
acquisition in children. This book, which includes all the data in chronological 
and alphabetical order, will be a valuable resource for morphologists, Romance 
linguists, and historical linguists more generally.
